Happy Ending
Starring: Saif
Ali Khan. Ileana D’cruz, Govinda, Ranveer Shorey, Kalki Koechin, Preity Zinta
Director: Raj
Nidimoru, Krishna DK
Music: Sachin-Jigar
The young filmmakers are trying really hard to shun the
typical image of Bollywood by blending a good amount of urbane humour with the Hollywood
style of direction. But despite having successfully adopted the effortless narrative
technique, what they are still using is a fresher plot to build their story
upon. As a result what the audience watches is just a repetitive concoction of
an overused fable raj and krishna’s Happy Ending, unfortunately leaves you with
the same feeling of déjà vu.
Preformances:
Having played similar kind of role in Love aaj kal and Cocktail, saif ali khan
seems to have mastered the character of a playful, commitment phobic man. The
only thing that differentiates jai and gautam from yudi, is a sense of maturity
in acting. As his alter ego yogi, saif marvels an impressive comic timing that
surpasses his own standards.
Ileana D’cruz does an effortless job in bringing lightness
to the movie. This might be her second best performance after Barfi,
Kalki Koecglin is simply outstanding even in a short role,
Ranveer Shorey is hilariously spontaneous! His scenes with
saif give you some of the best moents of the film,
Preity Zinta, in a short cameo, Looks refreshing and makes
for a pleasant watch
Govinda is literally back in action! There is no way to beat
the competencies of this young hearted charmer who is flawless with comedy
What’s Good: A
light narrative with effortless comic elements, the witty one-liners, the
stunning cinematography and the kick-ass Govinda!
What’s Bad: An
overused plot that leads you nowhere, a drowsy second half excessive loophole
in terms of a romantic comedy
Rating: **
